IPHONE 5 overheating and battery issues

HI ,


I have bought my IPhone 5 64g yesterday and unfortunately I'm thinking of returning it back to apple , because of 2 issues


1- when I'm using the Iphone 5 , I feel the back of the device really gets overheated.

2- the battery life is not as announced , it does not last that much.



I'm really disappointed , if someone knows what's exactly the problem or how to solve it , please say something



Thanks

Frank Malloy you are extremely right. I'm aslo having same issue .phone is getting heat while seeing videos, and using 3g Network. i have given my device for service .its been 7 days, but they are saying device is still under testing. What do I think from this? does apple don't have capability to replace single iPhone?😮 . I have a trust on Apple , but gradually it's gonna reduce .

Dear Apple please respond, because its a coyly device and we have value to money.

Even i face the same problem,


there is no reply from apply but there is some small tricks to avoid it, but i dont like it though


I am using in 2G mode for internet

disable auto screen brightness

wallpaper setting set it as still dont use perspective in wallpaper setting



maybe if when they release the IOS 10 this fall that may fix this heating issue.


i had enough with lower configuration setting i am using.


come on its 4G mobile but i am using in 2G to save battery life.
